Description: The Tulip 'Little Beauty', 'Tulipa species', a fall planted bulb, produce beautifull coloring in flowers of red, white, and dark purple. The Species Tulips are rarely planted in large masses because their main feature is their uniqueness. Species Tulips are suitable for rock gardens and small group plantings, and they prefer to be left in the ground to multiply naturally. Species tulips are the wildflowers of the tulip family, and these hardy Species tulips require less work. They are less vulnerable to stormy spring weather, and their generally short stems don't bend in strong winds. Their flowers usually remain closed through the morning or on cloudy days, showing only the outside color of the petals. When warmed by the sun, they open to reveal another petal color on the inside. It's like having two different flowers in the same space at once. Spent flowers should be removed so that the energy goes into revitalizing bulbs instead of seeds. The leaves should not be cut back until they begin to yellow. This permits bulbs to recharge before going summer-dormant. Price:
